Well, as if Thanksgiving and Christmas AND New Years wasn't enough. I am still trying to plan a surprise birthday party. My dads birthday is next weekend (13th) and we are having the party on Saturday. Somehow when this started it sounded fun and exciting. But...

$1,800.00 and 150 RSVPs later...

It's not fun. I am stressed and panicing. I have ordered many many things that hasn't arrived yet. Nothing seems to be coming together, so I just have a pile of STUFF that will be taken with me to NC and hope it all adds up to a fun time. I put myself in the position where I worry what people will think..will they think its good enough? does it look childish? does it look cheap? could I have done better?

I know my dad will enjoy it and really that's all that matters. TRULY.

I'm having a DJ and karaoke there and was hoping to have trivia throughout the night but I can't seem to find trivia questions. It's a 50s-60s theme party, so if anyone knows where I can get some questions or anything that may help..or better ideas for fun...let me know :)

I totally understand your stress. I threw a surprise party for Laura a few years ago (and we were LIVING TOGETHER) and I thought I would die. To make a long story short.it went great, and yours will too. Try to enjoy it!

I'm a SAHM to 3 girls. We became foster parents in May 2006 in hopes of adoption. We love our girls and could never picture ourselves without them. Although life is much busier, we couldn't be any happier. Here's our story...
